JS: This sounds like it could be the beginning of a manifesto (perhaps something quite strict)? Yet you seem to suggest the value of either getting intentionally lost or importance of chance. Is this a contradiction?

JS: True! I like this idea of recognising the boundaries of our own personal experience. One of the pieces of work which I came across recently which makes this idea very explicit is Mehmet Sander’s ‘Single Space’ (above).

THP: Long ago, I pointed to the lens and said the trouble was here!
